Sell or Part out my 1995 Camaro?
Here's what it is. I bought this Silver Z28 as a daily driver, built a new motor for it, then got bored and bought a C4 Vette. Now I'm planning to put the Vette motor into the Silver Z28 and the fresh motor into the Corvette. Looking for honest opinions on whether I should part out or sell my Z28, and fair pricing for either. Never parted a car out before.
Here's a mod list:
1995 Camaro Z28 - Clear/clean title - 13x,xxx miles on body - Silver T-Top car
- 1995 Corvette [4 bolt] stock motor [165,xxx miles]
- T56 Manual Trans
- B&M Ripper Shifter
- Hooker Ceramic coated Longtubes
- Summit 3" Xpipe kit, cut and fitted
- Hotchkis Panhard Bar [Adjustable]
- Internet Racer Supply Lower control Arms [Tubular non-adj]
- Racetronix fuel pump kit
- SLP Level II lowering springs
- Lingenfelter Cold Air kit [brand new like 200 miles on it]
- 10 bolt factory 3.42 gears
[Currently has a Ram HD clutch and Hays Flywheel with real low miles, but I'd like to use that in the Vette if I can, if not I'd sell that as well]
Car body needs work, the paint is oxidized in a few spots, and has dented area by the gas neck. Interior is typical, cracked dask pad and slightly faded seats. A highschool kid would probably drool over this car, but a collector or Vette owner would call it trash.
Here's a picture of it, it currently has salad shooters not the 10spokes.
1994 Z28 383ci - Jake's 4L80 - Moser 9" [LE2 heads and LE cam - 121mph @5500DA]
1995 Corvette 350ci - ZF6 - Dana 44 [GTP heads - XE503 - RamHD]
1997 Ram 2500 - tractor motor - duel spinners - chimnie mod

Put it as close to stock as you can and sell it whole, since it'd in pretty good shape. Or, drive it as a daily and keep the Vette nice.

If you only have enough time and money for 1 car or the other, and are set on getting rid of the Z, I agree, you are probably better off selling the performance stuff, and putting it as close back to stock as possible, and selling it outright. They are not worth much, even if they are in perfect shape, but you should be able to make out with at least $4,000+ I would think.

The 10 spokes are on the Corvette, they actually look pretty good on it in my opinion.
I'm not going to DD the car anymore, I ran two more tanks of fuel through the car after the rebuild as a daily driver thinking the new motor would be enough to ignite something and it just didn't do it for me. I've got too many vehicles. The red camaro is more race, the Corvette is the DD, and the truck is the work horse. I have no reason to have a third or garage the Vette. The whole reason I bought the Corvette was to replace the Silver car as the daily driver, I just wasn't totally convinced about swapping the motors until last week. The 450hp rebuilt motor was getting 24-25mpg during break it and I think it'd be the perfect motor to spice up the Corvette.
I guess the best plan would be to try selling the Silver Camaro as a whole and part it out only if necessary to recover my investment in it. The reason I considered a part out is because I'll obviously have everything apart for the motor swap, so it would be less work than reassembling the silver Camaro to sell as a whole. Hopefully that gives a better perspective on where I'm at.1994 Z28 383ci - Jake's 4L80 - Moser 9" [LE2 heads and LE cam - 121mph @5500DA]

I'd sell it as a running car that is as close to stock as you can get it. I know its more work, but 1 sale and you're done with it. You'd be surprised how long you'll be sitting on random parts during a part out.
